The federal government is set to propose new digital duty-of-care laws to protect Australians on social media.
The draft legislation would enable users to opt out of algorithm systems and impose a duty of care on social media companies to crack down on harmful content.
Labor MP Matt Thistlethwaite says the government is ‘not afraid to take action’ against social media giants, while Coalition Senator Jonno Duniam says he would like to see new measures to prevent digital harm.

Social media should be safe for everyone, so Feeds should exclude harmful content completely, forcing users to visit potentially harmful posts by navigating manually via the Home page of that account.
